Huron borrowed
$125.0 million on the Company's revolving credit facility during Q1 2020 to maintain excess cash and support liquidity during the period of uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Driven by organic growth across all three operating segments, Huron delivered 9% revenue growth in the first quarter,” said
“Despite these uncertainties, our clients’ needs have only increased during this period, and we believe that our transformational services will continue to be in strong demand when the economy stabilizes. In the interim, we have taken appropriate actions to manage our balance sheet and expenses that give us confidence in our financial position,” added Roth.
COVID-19 IMPACT
The company is closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business, including how it will impact its clients, employees and business partners. While the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a significant impact on its consolidated revenues in the first quarter of 2020, the company expects the COVID-19 pandemic to have an unfavorable impact on its sales and business development activities and full year 2020 results. However, given the dynamic nature of these circumstances, the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the company's consolidated operations and overall financial performance is uncertain at this time.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES(7)
In evaluating the company’s financial performance and outlook, management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues, adjusted net income from continuing operations, and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP measures. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the company's comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts). These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in their financial and operating decision making because management believes they reflect the company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures when publicly providing their business outlook, for internal management purposes, and as a basis for evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Huron’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and in comparing in a consistent manner Huron’s current financial results with Huron’s past financial results. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flows or liquidity prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
